We are not a selling club? Watch this space

I fear the worst for CTRLFC
Based on what ?

At least back your statement up with something

Chill sonny

My fears are based on the history of the club and how we always seem to be in a cycle of "boom or bust".

Am I not allowed and opinion and why have you asked me to back my opinions up and not all the others?

never mind sonny, you had your two minutes fame

If this is true, probably not, I wouldn't begrudge Trueman a shot down under. He's more chance of bettering himself in aus than he ever has over at dire.

The important thing is if there is any move to Australia, Is we have a clause in his contract for first refusal when he comes back.

Personally I’d say it’s a year or two too soon for that move

Ultimately plenty of players head from us to bigger clubs for better chances of international appearances and NRL gigs, Right now however I don’t see how Warrington would offer more than we do.

If we're going to lose JT, then it may aswell to the highest bidder. Let them and Warrington get in to a bidding war if they want him that much. I would much prefer to lose him to Warrington than Wigan mind.

Fantastic news so that’s Wigan Wire and the NRL should be looking at 500k easy.
With saints having to sell 2-3 players let’s get Fages in.

I thought he’d already signed for Warrington.
Just saying.

This.
If we can get a substantial fee for Trueman and sign Fages, we have a better player and money to invest elsewhere in the team.

He's only 26 and by the end of this season he'll be past the 200-game mark. Just coming into his prime as a half-back, really.

I'll be shocked if Saints allow him to leave, but their success is also their challenge. They are already spending the full salary cap and everyone in their squad will believe their form should mean an improved contract when they come up for renewal. On that basis, they just can't keep everyone.
However, if he doesn't re-sign for Saints then I suspect the likes of Warrington (who might lose Austin and Widdop - Powell tried to sign Fages to replace Gale before he signed his current deal with Saints so obviously rates him) and Wigan (who are now losing Hastings at the end of the year) will be interested too.

Does it really matter.???

Cas will be here next year and when I'm long gone.

Players come, players go.

I'd like him to stay.

If not, let's move on.

He could stay and become a legend.

More probably chase the money.!!!!!

Hope I'm wrong.
I remember Peter Small
